I moved into the area and had rented a Budget truck. I had no issues returning the truck and the whole process went smoothly.

Doesnt exist. This place no longer has budget trucks. The national number for budget doesnt even acknowledge this as a location. Dont bother.

The helpful young man behind the counter was a little socially awkward but he was friendly and courteous. He even added an extra day at no charge.The other employees were a little aggressive and rude. They would take the rental cars out of the parking lot at very high speeds, cutting off other drivers. They peeled out of the driveway each time squealing the car tires and driving erratically.Its an easy to find location right beside the airport entrance. They had only been at this location for a month when we rented.

I dont typically leave bad reviews and always attempt to come to a resolution with management if there is an issue, but in this case that was not possible. The truck I rented was in rough shape. There was a major leak in the passenger cabin, resulting my family and I getting soaked repeatedly with rain on our 13 hour drive. I returned the truck two days early but there was no one at the location in spite of business hours online stating they were open. Ive tried repeatedly (8 times) to get someone on the phone, but the recording states the agency is closed or the agent is busy. I took several photographs and videos of the water coming in, as well as the general state of the truck. I will be taking additional action if the company does not contact me.

Absolute WORST customer service I have ever experienced! Had a reservation on Saturday 8/25/18 for a 26 truck, got there to pick up the truck, had to wait for the only person working there to finish with the person before me only for him to tell me that the keys to the truck had been lost and that they had no truck for me. No phone call beforehand to inform me of this, nothing. And then to top it off, there is a $50 charge taken out of my checking account and no one can tell me why or find a way to refund the money!!!

Usually I have nothing good to say about budget but one horrible experience is all it takes! I put a truck on reserve weed ago to pick up one way. The office hours are 8-5 got there after 4 pm and they were closed. The persons number on the door never picked up. So I call customer service, they send my info to the Inventory Manager who was rude! While waiting on the phone, 5pm comes around and two cars come out from behind the building flying. They hit their breaks, spinning he cars and parking them. One car still had the trunk open while he did a donut. No one paid any attention to me and then they walked back behind the building. Guess that was the employees. The Inventory Manager had the nerve to tell me they dont have a truck available anywhere in Wilmington so what did I want him to do about it. He said they never he a truck for me and that the location was support I advice me. He was not sympathetic or try to correct their employees mistake. He just said i dont have any truck so what do you want me to do about it? What do you want me to do with your reservation? Horrible customer service!!!! I am a Fastbreak customer and rent monthly from Budget for travel. I guess I will be finding a new rental company and letting all those I have referred about this experience also.P.S. Thank you Penske for coming to my aid, being extra polite, and helping in anyway possible.

No tow dolly at pickup, had to wait until 6pm to get car trailer (which was defective).Charged $150.00 deposit at pickup even though paying with credit card. Charged more for tow dolly even though we were inconvenienced. Guy who works at Wilmington budget may be mentally retarded and I suggest immediate termination of him and their right to rent budget trucks. He didn’t know procedure, didn’t explain new documents, was rude, unhelpful, stupid, and disrespectful.Tire on car trailer disintegrates an hour outside of town.Trailer deemed broken/unfit for travel by budget mechanic at Florence, sc. Called at 4:30 to report, roadside assistance was unhelpful and rude and didn’t believe problem even though we had the gas station mechanic saying there was.Called local budget rental in Florence to ask about trailer, no one answered, supposed to be open until 6pm. Called Thoroughbred Motors (TM) (the business its located in and he said they had left for the day. So the employee left at least 45 minutes early. TM guy said they had a tow dolly there. So problem could have been resolved by roadside assistance at 4:30 but they chose to ignore good customer service. This place is too busy running three businesses to care very much about any of them.

Walked in on a terrible conversation that the old man working behind the desk was having with someone else... his attitude carried over to my conversation. Customers dont want to hear this. I honestly will never use this company in GENERAL again. I couldnt care less about the price. I picked it up from rude people.. I dropped it off with rude people.

Horrible customer service. They tack on things to you bill without telling you. When you complain they pretend not to speak very good English. Im sure they wont be in business very long if they operate like that.
